Volume of tweets characterizing the M5S, CDX and CSX communities across the observation period: notice the peak of activity, evident for all communities, registered in correspondence of the day after elections (5 March 2018). The volume of tweets characterizing the M5S community is systematically larger than the volume of tweets characterizing the other two communities, across the entire period considered here—an element that confirms the attitude of M5S supporters to use social media in political ways.
